    <p>You are creating rows of widgets. Each row may have more or less widgets than other rows. At some point you need to get a list that represents the data in each row. You're asking, "how do I get this list?". Am I correct?</p> <p>You must have asked 20 questions about this one simple problem. The problem isn't in this or any other single function, it's in your general architecture. A very, very smart programmer once told me "if you want me to understand your code, don't show me your code, show me your data structures". The root problem here is, you have no data structures. If you don't organize your data, you can't hope to get at the data easily. </p> <p>There's nothing hard about this problem. Keep a list of the entry widgets for each row, and iterate over that list whenever you need the values. The following pseudocode shows how simple this can be:</p> <pre><code>class MyApp(object): def __init__(self): # this represents your data model. Each item in the # dict will represent one row, with the key being the # row number self.model = {} def add_row(self, parent, row_number): '''Create a new row''' e1 = Entry(parent, ...) e2 = Entry(parent, ...) e3 = Entry(parent, ...) ... # save the widgets to our model self.model[row_number] = [e1, e2, e3] def extend_row(self, parent, row_number, n): '''Add additional widgets to a row''' for i in range(n): e = Entry(parent, ...) self.model[row_number].append(e) def get_values(row_number): '''Return the values in the widgets for a row, in order''' result = [widget.get() for widget in self.model[row_number]] return result </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
